EMERGENCY LIFE SAVER™ (ELS)
1-Day Maritime Emergency Medical Course
Because 20 Miles Offshore Is a Long Way From the Emergency Room.
When a medical emergency happens at sea, your crew becomes the first responder. The actions taken during the first few minutes can dramatically impact the outcome and survivability of the patient.
The D-DEY Offshore Emergency Life Saver™ (ELS) course is a comprehensive one-day, hands-on training program specifically designed for boat owners, captains, crew members, and families who want the knowledge and confidence to manage medical emergencies until professional care is available.
At D-DEY, our mission is simple:
Empower. Train. Equip.
We believe that preparation saves lives, and the purpose of the ELS program is to provide practical, real-world skills that can be immediately applied during emergencies on the water.
